"Project Slam Dunk": Gene Gilmore's Deathbed Account of the Moon Landing Built at Cannon Air Force Base

Running time 14:11

Eugene "Gene" Gilmore, himself dying of cancer, passes on what his father — a military policeman at Cannon AFB — told him on his own deathbed in 2002: that a moonscape was built inside two hangars in New Mexico in 1968 on President Johnson's order, that his father cried when he watched the landing on television, and that fifteen names were cleared to go inside. He holds up his father's badge on camera.
